Cost analysis#
Cost parameters, NPV / LCOE / payback projections, and CO2 emissions projections. Emissions and economics share the same projection function because both produce per-year cumulative discounted series from the same energy balance.
Cost parameters#
|
Cost parameters for economic analysis. |

CAPEX and projection#
|
Calculate system costs (CAPEX) and return cost dictionary. |
Perform multi-year cost projection analysis. |
Metrics#
|
Calculate Levelized Cost of Electricity (LCOE). |
Calculate LCOE from a simulated multi-year projection. |
|
Find the payback year from a cost projection DataFrame. |
Emissions#
Parameters for CO2 emissions calculations. |
|
Calculate CO2 emissions avoided by PV production. |
|
Calculate multi-year CO2 savings projection. |
